    Yes!

    The Texans have FIRED Bill O'Brien.

    Someone in the McNair family has more balls than I thought.

    Congrats.
    The sad part is that it will take at least a couple of years of rebuilding and possibly more, given the lack of draft picks in the spring.

    OB didn't leave much for the new HC & GM to work with. Free agency signings will be huge for the Texans if they expect to be playoff serious in 2021.

    The pain of rebuilding will be better than the pain of OB ru(i)nning things.

    Got my fingers crossed it's Ryan Pace, but, not holding my breath.

    Did the Chiefs offense realize they had a game today? A QB marginally better than Hoyer might've pulled off the win.

    not sure how Quinn still has a job after last year. But Blank is a people person, hes not a "what have you done for me lately" kinda guy. Im sure the injuries have played a part in him still having a job.

    Matt Patricia may be the underdog in this race, but he's my pick.

    Since OB was the only firing, there have been plethora of related articles. One assclown at ESPN (I think) actually defended OB. Another assclown separated OB the coach (positive) from OB the GM (negative). Obviously neither of those guys have been a fan under his tenure.

    Several articles went into great detail about the hole Texans are in. No 1st or 2nd round drafts pick until 2021. Serious salary cap issues. which will mean limited action during the next free agency period, and probably the one after. We might get lucky with some good "Prove It" one year deals, but not likely.

    If the Texans had fired OB after the miserable performance against the Colts (7 total points = inexusable) in the POs back after 2018 season, they could've enticed some top HC and GM candidates. As it stands now the Texans are in sad shape, worthy sought after candidates will give them a miss.


    Aaron Rodgers is on a mission.

    Stephon Gilmore Covid test positive.
    More positive tests for the Titans.
    I think the Bills may get an unplanned week off this week.

    Ther are saying that the Titans may have to forfit. Their is video of them having "practice" even though they have been mandated to quarantine, so who knows.

    But they are comparing that to when Brady had "training sessions" before the season started.

    Two concerning photos from the last few days:
    Gilmore embracing Mahomes at the end of their game.
    And the Raiders player who later tested positive embracing Josh Allen at the end of their game.

    It seems that the Titans were on the NFL office "compliance" radar for a while. Maybe a whistleblower situation?

    Fines in the NFL tend to be something of a joke, they don't usually hurt the guilty party that badly. But sanctions such as draft picks can be very punitive.

    Brilliant comeback on Sunday, mediocre on Thursday. Old age showing in a short week?

    It could be Noles is starting to fit in with the offense.

    Also another positive test for the Titans.....although it was a coach who has not been in the team facility for 2 weeks.
    So no decision yet on whether Bills-Titans game is played on Tuesday.

    The players tend to be young and healthy, some probably think of themselves as bulletproof. And most have money to burn.

    The NFL is a money machine. Most of the numerous people who have an interest in the NFL don't want the machine to slow down.
